This is the best time in your life
Your brain is still really good
You'll come up with some fantastic ideas, okay?
You still have, How old are you, 25?
Yeah, this is one of the best times of your life
What were you doing?
When I was 25 I went bankrupt
So I was supposed to have lost my job
So to save my job, Bank
In order to save it
I had to go the university of Illinois in Chicago

Tell your mother
Give her some hugs and kisses
Tell her this is from Rhonda
Tell her this is from Rhonda

That's what happens you know
Put someone in a situation
Teach them negative things
Say bad things
That's how they come up
Give them the opposite
Put them in a situation and say
She can't see
She can't hear
She doesn't have a left arm
But she is the same as you
We are
That's how you come up
That's what you exposed to
Then that's what you become
At a very young age
There's no difference
You're just a kid
Just like me
We can tell jokes and make funny faces
You know and do all the silly things that children do
And have fun
You're taught at a very young age
Positive things like that
You will be like that for the rest of your life

Advice too
This trip has been difficult
I sold a lot of my stuff to get out here
And as soon as I moved out here
My debit card was stolen
And all the money from my bank was drained
And I'm like
"I have no money and a very limited support network around here"

They would have found the person that did it
Exactly
And put them in jail
And you would have had your money
Winning

I went through identity theft
They had some information from me and bought some brand new men's suits

Best time of your life
What were you doing at my age?

I'm a retired teacher
So when I was 25 I was filling out my application for work

What did you study?
I was a high school English teacher at the time when I first started
The school went bankrupt
So I was supposed to have lost my job
but the principal of the school remembered me
Because I was a student of theirs
So he saved my job
So In order to save it
I had to go the university of Illinois in Chicago
Applied to a graduate program and got in

You did special ed?
Yes
That's what my mom did

It was a gift
But that's what I did
I took to the hard of hearing and the deaf
So when I was 25
Going into 25
That's when i started at the school
Love it

I had to borrow money from her to get by

That's why i haven't jumped into graduate school
I don't feel financially stable enough to do it

See I didn't have a choice
That was my career
Not just a job but a career
You know
I had to do it you know

So were you still working while you were studying?

Yeah
I had to do all of that
Teacher during the day
Going to school during the evening

Love it

Yeah my mom has driven
Almost my entire childhood
She left her like corporate job at apple
Oh wow
And she started driving a special needs bus
My parents are divorced so she raised me herself
Okay
So she needed to be around the house as much as possible
And having a school bus route
That had some breaks during the day
Was the best that they could come up with so
Yeah so I drove on short buses with her all the time
Sitting with the children
Making the best of friends with them
I just know
I know special needs kids
I know blind deaf and ahh
I love it
I feel privileged to have gotten that experience so young

Right, and you know what?
That makes you a better person
By your mother exposing you to those people

Certainly

And learning how to be just as nice to them as you are to anybody
That's what makes you a good person

Empathy
That's it

And I didn't see the difference between people
It wasn't like this category of people
It wasn't like special needs

If you teach a person at a very young age
It builds character then
They don't have the meanest in them
It's an attitude
You know
That's a learned thing to look down at people
And have those kind of negative attitudes
A child doesn't come into this world like that
So if your mother put you on that bus with those kids
At a very young age and you learn how to treat those kids
You know they're just like anybody else
That's, It builds character
That brings out the best in you know

Definitely, I appreciate it a lot
And you are for all intents and purposes a good person

Well thanks Rhonda, You're not so bad yourself

Thank you Darling
That's what happens you know
Put someone in a situation
Teach them negative things
Say bad things
That's how they come up
Give them the opposite
Put them in a situation and say
She can't see
She can't hear
She doesn't have a left arm
But she is the same as you
We are
That's how you come up
That's what you exposed to
Then that's what you become
At a very young age
There's no difference
You're just a kid
Just like me
We can tell jokes and you know
Make funny faces
You know and do all the silly things that children do
And have fun

Totally and like you were saying too
The older you get, your brain is a little bit different
It's harder to change those habits that you were taught

Right, So if you're taught at a very very young age
Types of things like that
You'll be that way for the rest of your life

Forever
I don't have to unlearn any bad shit

This is it because you know
It is the truth

You know how I feel about a lie and the truth
You have to remember a lie but you don't have to remember the truth
Honesty
You don't have to remember goodness

When you see your mother
Just give her some hugs and kisses and tell her this is from Rhonda
Tell her this is from Rhonda
A retired special needs teacher

I totally will

Tell her that I turned out to be a wonderful person
All I needed was some money

Hahaha

She's certainly helped me with her meager funds
To like...
This trip has been difficult
I sold a lot of my stuff to get out here
And as soon as I moved out here
My debit card was stolen
And all the money from my bank was drained
And I'm like
"I have no money and a very limited support network around here"
It got fixed so I'm okay
But it was a month of hassle and just sending in this and that

Baby, they would have found the person that did that
Put them in jail
You would have gotten your money
Yeah
Yes
